A toxin refers to any exogenous molecule or particle that can be harmful to a cell or its DNA. Toxins can be small molecules, peptides, or proteins that are capable of causing disease on contact with or absorption by body tissues interacting with biological macromolecules such as enzymes or cellular receptors.

AG has a variety of molecules and reagants to help in your research, the three most popular are: 

• Kainic Acid is an excitatory amino acid receptor agonist selective for kainate receptor subtype; conformationally restricted analog of L-glutamic acid, available in a natural or synthetic form.

• Wortmannin is a fungal metabolite that specifically inhibits phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and myosin light-chain kinase (MLCK).

• NBQX is a potent and selective AMPA/Kainate receptor antagonist. NBQX is also neuroprotective agent.

AG Scientific delivers quality assured reagents directly to scientists, from small-scale to bulk orders. Our leadership in bulk supply allows us to provide custom product packaging and create multiple product forms. We offer “just in time” delivery, private labeling, and custom formulations for specific research needs.
